    UBUNTU: SAUCE: Redpine: enhancement for MAC spoofing to avoid kernel crash · fa02bafe

    When mac spoof is enabled in userspace and scan gets triggered with custom
    mac address, driver is not handling custom mac addresses properly and
    causing kernel crash. This could be fixed by copying custom mac addess to
    mac address.
